Title: Issue Importing Key (CRC Error - GPG Tools for Mac)
Post by: redturkey on July 18, 2012, 03:19 am
I recently experienced some trouble importing a vendor's public PGP key. I'm using the latest nightly build version of GPG Tools for Mac. When I try to import this particular key, I receive an error message that reads "CRC Error (Checksum error) Code = 10)". I have no trouble importing keys from other vendors using the exact same method (copy and paste into a text editor).

Has anyone else experienced this issue? Can anyone offer some potential solutions? Would someone be willing to try and import this key? (if so please let me know and I'll PM you)

Thanks for any and all help.

Mind PMing me the key so I can try to import it? Back when I scraped 1020 vendor keys, about 10 of them wouldn't import because of various issues. Some were posted on the vendor profile wrong. At least this way you will know if it's a problem with the key your PGP program.

oh i fixed it, in GPG i had to open the keyboard settings and then put a checkmark in everything that had OpenGPG, that's when importing key worked. thanks though

placed my order fe'd will update with results. thank u lucky for being patient with a new buyer through pm's
